A complete guide to Capital One’s airport lounges: What to know in 2026
Editor's Note
In a space once dominated by the American Express Centurion Lounge network, Chase and Capital One have been rapidly opening their own branded airport lounges.
Currently, there are five Capital One Lounges and two "Landings," a unique dining concept.
The most recent location was a Landing, which opened in February 2026 at LaGuardia Airport (LGA) in New York. The next lounge slated to open will be at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT).
Here's what we know about Capital One's lounges, including who has access and what to expect inside.
Where are Capital One Lounges and Landings located?
Capital One operates lounges at:
- Denver International Airport (DEN)
- Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW)
- Dulles International Airport (IAD) near Washington, D.C.
- John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York
- Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) in Las Vegas
It also has two Landings open at:
- Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) near Washington, D.C.
- LaGuardia Airport (LGA) in New York
Beyond these, one additional lounge is in the pipeline for CLT. We'll update this list as more lounge locations become known.

Who has access to Capital One Lounges?
The Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card and the Capital One Venture X Business are the main credit cards that provide access to Capital One Lounges.
Neither card provides complimentary lounge access to authorized users. Instead, primary cardholders must pay $125 per authorized user, per year for lounge access.
Capital One Lounge and Landing guests must pay $45 to enter the lounge with a primary Venture X or Venture X Business cardholder. Those 17 and under can enter for $25. Access for children under 2 is free.
However, if you spend at least $75,000 with your Venture X or Venture X Business in a calendar year, you'll earn the ability to bring up to two complimentary guests to Capital One Lounges and one guest to a Capital One Landing.
Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Spark Miles for Business cardholders and their guests can access these lounges at a special entry rate of $45 per person or $25 per person for those under 18.
Finally, anyone can pay to access the Capital One Lounge, but it costs $90 per person.
Other rules
All Capital One Lounge visitors must present a boarding pass for a departing flight. This includes access up to three hours before departure or same-day connection flights. Travelers cannot enter the Capital One Lounge with boarding passes for arriving flights that do not have an onward connection.

Denver International Airport
- Opened: November 2023
- Location: Concourse A near Gate 34 at the mezzanine level
- Hours of operation: 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily
Located in Concourse A, the DEN Capital One Lounge is convenient for those flying Frontier Airlines, Delta Air Lines and most international carriers, but passengers flying out of the B and C concourses need to take an underground train to access it.
This lounge celebrates Denver's unique culture through its mountain-themed art and food-and-beverage offerings created by local providers.
Lounge guests have their choice of bespoke cocktails, but don't miss the Denver location's signature airport beer: the Sky High P.A.
The lounge also offers food-and-beverage options consistent with what we've come to expect from Capital One: a selection of grab-and-go items at the front of the lounge for those passing through, as well as individual servings of heavier bites for those who have a bit more time.
Additionally, the lounge has two showers, two relaxation rooms, three private workrooms (available with a reservation), a relaxation room with a nap pod and a parents room.

Dallas Fort Worth International Airport
- Opened: November 2021
- Location: Terminal D, near Gate 22
- Hours of operation: 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily
Capital One's DFW lounge honors the Dallas-Fort Worth region in its design and guest experience, including partnerships with area artists, breweries, coffee roasters and cocktail bars.
In creating this first lounge, Capital One focused on eco-friendly materials, unique textures and eye-catching effects like curved surfaces.
More than 55 pieces of original artwork by local artists are on display, featuring diverse perspectives and mediums and giving travelers "an opportunity to experience the region through its art."
You can even get a full workout with Peloton bikes and a yoga room, or get some rest in a nap pod.

Dulles International Airport
- Opened: September 2023
- Location: Main terminal, after TSA PreCheck and Clear security checkpoints; can be accessed from the Z-Gates through a lift or escalator
- Hours of operation: 5:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily
Inside, visitors can take advantage of multiple grab-and-go snack and drink options right after entry. Those with more time can find a spot in the open-concept space to settle in, where they can choose from a wide range of single-serve food options and a bar.
Elements of the local culture are evident throughout, from nods to the nation's capital in some art pieces to cherry blossom margaritas and locally roasted coffee available.

John F. Kennedy International Airport
- Opened: June 2025
- Location: Level 3 in Retail Hall of Terminal 4 near B Gates
- Hours of operation: Open 24 hours a day
Highlights inside include an all-day cold buffet near the dining area and a menu for made-to-order hot dishes. Tables in the lounge feature QR codes to open the a la carte menu of hot food.
You can also order from a bagel counter that offers fresh food from New York's Ess-a-Bagel, which you can eat in the lounge or take on the go.
Capital One also partnered with Murray's Cheese in New York to offer a cheesemonger station at the end of the buffet. There, you'll find a rotating selection of 10 specialty cheeses paired with wines and meats.
The lounge features a signature bar with more than 15 curated cocktails.
The lounge doesn't have gyms or sleep pods, but it does provide two private rooms (available on a first-come, first-served basis in 45-minute increments). There are seven all-gender restrooms, a parents room and a bathroom that doubles as a shower suite.
Capital One's lounge at JFK is also a great place to charge your devices, with multiple power outlets and USB-C ports near seats, as well as fast and free Wi-Fi, with the password conveniently displayed next to the QR code at each table.

Harry Reid International Airport
- Opened: February 2025
- Location: Concourse D Atrium on the second level near Gate D50
- Hours of operation: 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily
Inside, you'll find grab-and-go offerings, as well as the small plates, craft cocktails and locally roasted coffee we've come to expect from Capital One Lounges. And the lounge has its own version of the perfect airport beer: the Lady Luck from Las Vegas Brewing Company.
The LAS location also offers beverage add-ons in the form of powdered drink mix-ins supporting relaxation or energy, depending on your mood. These are included in some of the lounge's craft cocktails, but guests can request an add-on with any drink they order.
Additionally, the space has six private, gender-neutral restrooms with changing tables. It also has one relaxation room and two private workrooms available by reservation.
Throughout the day, different beverage cart services are available: Italian-style shaken espresso in the morning, tea and pastries in the afternoon and sparkling wine at sunset to accompany the space's impressive views.
But all that glitters isn't gold, and this lounge lacks some of the perks we've come to love in other locations. You won't find showers, workout spaces or luggage lockers at this location.

Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport
- Opened: November 2024
- Location: Terminal 2 in the National Hall near Concourse D
- Hours of operation: 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily
While not a traditional lounge, the Capital One Landing provides an elevated airport dining experience. It partners with the highly acclaimed José Andrés Group to curate each location's food-and-beverage options. Remaining true to its culinary heritage, the Landing serves Spanish-style tapas.
The Landing assigns guests to a table after check-in at the main lounge, rather than allowing them to pick and choose where they roam within the space. The menu includes a selection of tapas served quickly, along with specialty beverages.
It's part of a unique partnership between Andrés and Capital One, the restaurateur's first venture into airport dining.
The second quick-service space, On the Fly, is an a la carte cafe that serves all travelers (not just those with lounge access). Cardholders get a 50% discount on all food and drinks, but otherwise, it's largely your typical airport grab-and-go experience.
You won't find showers, relaxation areas or private conference rooms at the Capital One Landing since the area caters to stop-and-go passengers.

LaGuardia Airport
- Opened: February 2026
- Location: Terminal B, on the bridge to gates 11 to 31
- Hours of operation: 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily
Capital One's Landing at LGA is highlighted by a curated menu by chef José Andrés. Spanish-style tapas, meats, cheeses, small plates and desserts are on display, as well as a selection of craft cocktails and nonalcoholic mocktails.
The Landing also features standout views of the New York City skyline, luggage nooks and five private bathrooms. Local New York artwork and natural light create a relaxing energy in the space.

Bottom line
Capital One is making a name for itself with lounge perks like grab-and-go food-and-beverage options, local elements throughout its spaces and unique offerings like a specific "perfect airport beer" at each location.
Plus, the addition of its smaller Landing concept provides cardholders with even more variety.
Keep an eye on Capital One — it may just take the top issuer lounge spot soon.
